Neighbors Doing the Best They Can

I just found the best news story so far on real people in a real a neighborhood in New Orleans and how Katrina has affected them. It's from National Public Radio. Gwendolyn Thompkins talks about Ponchartrain Park, an all-black suburb on the lake just east of the Industrial Canal. Her childhood home there was flooded. She talks to neighbors, reminescing about her childhood, and we hear some great music. It's worth downloading and installing Real Player (get the free version) just to hear this. This neighborhood is near where we will be working.
